This movie was produced by the "Hungarian Communion of Friends" in Portland, Oregon, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. The compilation of clips from newsreels gives glimpses of these events. This is an interesting way of reusing newsreels, and many people have downloaded it - Hungarian refugees spread all over Western Europe and America.
